Eat to Compete

A healthy approach to eating for active people

Jeni Pearce

Jeni has designed a sensible, nutritionally balanced programme which enables competitors to realise their sporting potential.

The link between good nutrition and sports performance is now widely recognised. In this bestselling book, Jeni Pearce examines the relationship between sound nutrition, body composition, weight control, exercise performance and good health.

While Jeni argues convincingly that good food and nutrition can provide that all-important winning edge, this book is of benefit to those involved in non-competitive sports too. Benefits can include improving times, endurance, concentration and enjoyment. A practical manual for coaches, team managers and individuals, Eat to Compete is of equal value to the casual sports participant and the serious competitor.
